Star Trek (DS9): The Quickening

This forum is for discussing Chuck's videos as they are publicly released. And for bashing Neelix, but that's just repeating what I already said.

I guess it doesn't feel consistent, and Chuck himself said he's supposed to stand for consistency among his fans. I don't get how "The Quickening" is less engaging than "Shadowplay," especially given he said "Shadowplay" he appreciates more from a technical perspective. I also think he's missing the character aspects of the episode. He brought them up, sure, but it didn't seem to factor into his final rating. It's pure opinion, sure, but at the same time, I feel as if it should have been a 4, since his conclusions for both are pretty much the same thing.

I mean, "Paradise" was a 3. You're telling me "The Quickening" is on par with THAT trash episode and the tyrant running her cult colony?
